Step-by-Step Guide to Connecting Pacer with Apple Health
Follow these instructions carefully to establish a successful link between your Pacer app and Apple Health:
- Access Your Profile: Open the Pacer app on your iPhone. In the top-left corner of the screen, tap the person icon (often resembling a silhouette of a head and shoulders) to open your Profile menu.
- Select Data Source: Within the Profile menu, navigate to and tap on Steps Data Source. This section manages where Pacer pulls its primary step count information from.
- Choose Apple Health: From the available options, select Apple Health. After selecting it, tap the Connect button to initiate the link.
- Set as Primary: A prompt will appear. Ensure you enable (toggle on) the option for Use Apple Health as Primary Data Source. This tells Pacer to prioritize data from Apple Health for your step tracking.
- Initiate Sync: Tap the prominent red 'Got it, Sync Now' button. This action begins the crucial data synchronization process.
- Maintain Connection: It is vital to keep the Pacer app open and active on your screen throughout the entire syncing process. Closing the app prematurely could interrupt the data transfer and require you to restart.
- Restart Pacer: Once the synchronization is complete, for the changes to fully take effect and for Pacer to begin pulling data from Apple Health reliably, restart your Pacer app. Close it completely from your app switcher and then reopen it.
After completing these steps, your Pacer app should now be successfully linked with Apple Health, providing a unified and accurate record of your activity data.
